🧳 Travelling suitcase 👗 ...Sadly I'm not going anywhere 😥 but this is still pretty fun. I am the recently-appointed custodian for our community "travelling suitcase" which is basically a pile of secondhand clothes in a size range of which I am handily smack bang in the middle. People come and get it from my house, take it home and try shit on, keep what they like and replace with their own unwanted garments. Then they drop it back to me and I quality check then pass it the next.

I LOVE it. I have found some awesome pieces (I'll show you in my stories over the next few days 💃) and I feel so satisfied boosting all the wardrobes, keeping clothes out of landfill and op-shops (who have more than enough to deal with) and money out of billionaires pockets. So you can try clothes with your other stuff, you don't have to drive more than 10 minutes, and you can completely avoid face-to-face human interaction if you wish 😂 oh ya and it's freeeeeee!

I love the thought of sending stuff out into the universe and trusting that what I need is making it's way back to me. It's easy to get rid of "just-in-case" things - I know I don't need them because more beautiful things are coming to my doorstep ✨ and if that's not a life lesson??

Who else does stuff like this?

Mine's run through the local "for free" facebook group so definitely worth asking there, or your Buy Nothing group. Or you could easily set one up in your workplace or similar?

In the last 24 hours I…
👰🏻 Saw my high school bestie become the most incredible bride and marry the man of her dreams in the rain
🍾💃 Drank too much sparkling wine and danced all night with the beautiful bunch of people they surround themselves with
😴 Had a solid sleep in a huge bed all to myself
☕️ Drank coffee on the beach, collecting shells and having awesome chats (and getting sunburnt 🤦‍♀️)
✍️ Wrote about 1000 words

I’m feeling super chilled and grateful and hungover 😂 now contemplating my next move…
- Have a bath?
- Laugh in the face of this hangover and climb the mountain I see out the window?
- Take myself and my notebook to the pub?
- Go back to bed?
- Wander around in dazed indecision, maybe post some pics to Instagram?

The choices are endless ❤️🙏

Today’s reminder not to buy shit because it’s on sale. Buy shit if you need it, but please think first whether you can use something you already own, or make it, or borrow, or buy second hand, or get it for free from your local Buy Nothing Facebook group or equivalent. Or buy local from someone who will circulate resources back into the community - don’t fund Jeff Bezos’s fucking space station ffs 🤢

“But Hans, time is money! And it’s so cheap!” I know right, and who has time to make shit, when you gotta go to work? To make more money? So you can buy more shit you don’t need? So billionaires can get richer and not pay tax while exploiting workers and fucking up the planet?

When you try and be all corporate but the hair gives you away every time 🙄 Bought this dress 6 years ago from an outlet in New Orleans. Wasn’t sure if peplums were still a thing but when I got to work my friend was basically wearing the same but a top and so it appears this was a well timed resurrection 🤷‍♀️

Find Your Voice COURSE UPDATE:
I chucked it in the bin 😂

Nah not really. But I did put it aside indefinitely. “Why Hannah?? It was so amazing!!” I know right, it was great, but I just couldn’t. After I ran the beta, I had so much wonderful feedback and learning and alllll these big ideas. Recordings, techy shit, big-arse sales funnels. It was gonna be epic. But I literally couldn’t move on it. I couldn’t make the time, and I spent so much energy beating myself up about it. Surely if I wanted it badly enough, I would make it happen! #hustleharder 🙄🤢

Huh. Perhaps there was some legitimacy to that thought?

When COVID happened, I started working more in my Health job, because, let’s be honest, this is the situation a public health grad was born for 🦸‍♀️

A prolonged return to the corporate world was not what I wanted but I have to tell you a secret. I’ve been enjoying it 😳I put this down to connections with an incredible network of women, who’ve torn open a capacity for authentic leadership that I didn’t know was in me. It’s turned some of the universal challenges of working in large organisations into sources of growth, from which I now draw energy instead of being drained (most of the time 😅).

And here’s something cool. Once I made peace with the fact that I am where I’m supposed to be right now and released the idea of what I thought I “should” be doing… 💥bang! My book idea came to me. The one I've been waiting on FOR EIGHT YEARS 🤯 And the words are just flowing out. #nohustlerequired

So yeah that’s what I’m doing now. Writing my book.

But also. People have started asking me about my course 😂 and I’m like… look, I do have a lot of cool shit to share. So *maybe* I’ll run a live and dirty version in the new year. Who knows? I’ll keep ya posted 😉

This year has been bananas 🍌 but here’s one thing I’ve learnt: the more I let on what a giant fucking weirdo I actually am, the more beautiful people and possibilities I attract ✨ true from the office to the dance floor 😜
